Miami Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria has agreed to sell the franchise for $1.2 billion to a group led by New York businessman Bruce Sherman and former New York Yankees star Derek Jeter, and Major League Baseball is expected to receive the written agreement on Friday, according to a New York based MLB source.

As for the little-known Sherman? The report projects him to be something close to a managing general partner.

"He brings that winning mentality," Posada said. "The people in Miami want it. They want change. I think the Marlins, if it happens ... it will be a great move for not only the organization, but I think for the city."

Now the city of Miami and the franchise can experience Jeter steering the ship.
